Large-Amplitude Elastic Free-Surface Waves: Geometric Nonlinearity and Peakons
Lawrence K. Forbes, Stephen J. Walters, Anya M. Reading
An instantaneous sub-surface disturbance in a two-dimensional elastic half-space is considered. The disturbance propagates through the elastic material until it reaches the free su…
Analytic and numerical solutions to the seismic wave equation in continuous media
S. J. Walters, L. K. Forbes, A. M. Reading
This paper presents two approaches to mathematical modelling of a synthetic seismic pulse, and a comparison between them. First, a new analytical model is developed in two-dimensio…
Fully 3D Rayleigh-Taylor Instability in a Boussinesq Fluid
S. J. Walters, L. K. Forbes
Rayleigh-Taylor instability occurs when a heavier fluid overlies a lighter fluid, and the two seek to exchange positions under the effect of gravity. We present linearized theory f…
A simple exact series representation for relativistic perihelion advance
Stephen J Walters
The small discrepancy between the observed orbit of Mercury and the orbit predicted by Newtonian gravity was a key test of Einstein's theory, and a dramatic verification of the cor…
